I am Kagiti Balaji, I have done my MCA, and I have rich experience in the IT industry. Currently, I am working as a Big data Engineer at Brillio. My project is a combination of both Big data and Data Science. Since I have strong expertise in Data Science, we do half of the work with ML and deep learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before I joined Brillio, I was working as a Big data developer in TCS. After gaining in-depth knowledge in the field, my decision to take up the Artificial Intelligence - PGP AIML course<\/a> <\/strong>from Great Learning was a turning point in my career. Not just did this course give me In-depth Knowledge in the field of AI, but also helped me have a wonderful career transition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the PGP AIML course from GL, I got a 100% hike in my pay scale and joined my new company \u2013 Brillio, as a Big Data Engineer.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The capstone project that was done by this learner on A Deep Convolutional Neural Network <\/a>(CNN) design for pathology detection of COVID-19 in chest X-Ray Images during the PGP AIML course was selected at the Prestigious \"CD-Make 2021<\/a>\" conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having a habit of thinking at the entrepreneur level, Studying Artificial Intelligence in MCA as a part of the curriculum always interested me a lot and elevated my Entrepreneurial way of thinking. I want to achieve something remarkable in the field of Artificial Intelligence.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ever since then, I started attending a lot of seminars and demos in different institutions, and finally, I decided to pursue a full-time course from Great Learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having a Strong team, initially, everyone came up with their ideas and problem statement. We placed the ideas of all the team members on one plate and started evaluating all the topics. Finally, we decided to work on healthcare. Meantime the entire world was already facing a problem with the Pandemic- Covid19. So finally, we decided to work on Covid image classification data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pain points that I faced during the project were-<\/p>\n\n\n\n
